The mine will be detonated by the Coast Guard’s bomb disposal experts. They believe it’s the explosive core of a World War II-era German torpedo. It likely contains around 300kg (661lbs) of explosives, so Sandgerði residents will probably notice the explosion.
Al largo del porto di Sandgerði (Garður- Suðurnesjabær) marinai di un peschereccio issano le reti e tra il pescato trovano una bomba risalente alla seconda guerra mondiale e di fabbricazione tedesca. Il team artificieri della Guardia Costiera ritiene che l’ordigno sia la parte contenente esplosivo di un siluro da 661 libbre.
If you find anything that appears to be an explosive device, do not touch it, leave it where it is and call the police. We will contact the appropriate agencies to properly dispose of the item.
